Control of stripe rust of wheat using indigenous endophytic bacteria at seedling and adult plant stage

Abstract Stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis tritici) is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat. The most effective ways to control stripe rust are the use of resistant cultivars and the timely use of an appropriate dose of fungicide. However, the changing nature of rust pathogen outw...
